본 연구는 폐타이어 재활용을 위하여 수행된 전처리 공정이 재생 고무분말의 기계적 물성에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 분쇄 및 탈황공정을 통하여 생산된 폐타이어 고무분말을 재가황한 후 인장시험, 충격시험 및 파단면 관찰을 수행하였다. 분쇄 공정을 거쳐서 생산된 고무분말은 입자크기가 작아질수록 그 표면적이 증가되며 인장강도와 연신율이 모두 증가되었다. 반면에 탈황공정을 거친 고무분말은 내부에 존재하는 황과의 가교결합이 줄어들어서 이후의 가황처리 후에도 인장강도와 연신율이 모두 증가되었다. 따라서 폐타이어 재활용을 위한 전처리 공정은 재활용 분말을 일정크기로 분쇄한 후 탈황공정까지를 수행한 고무분말을 제조하는 것이 단순 분쇄공정만을 거친 재활용 고무분말에 비하여 가황 시에 연신율을 보다 효율적으로 증가시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Track rubber parts has heat built-up as long as dynamic loading is applied from running tracked vehicles. Durability is required for rubber part to sustain the heat accumulation and heat exchange between rubber-metal assembly and environmental air and ground. For this research, the track assembly was divided into four parts i.e., bottom track shoe, upper track pad, pin busing and metal structure. Three rubber parts and metal structure were modelled and analyzed with MARC package program to obtain time-temperature data which was induced form mechanical work of tracked vehicles. heat accumulation data was obtained from special experiments under the room temperature of 25$^{\circ}C\;and\;35^{\circ}C$ to simulate the actual environmental conditions. From this research, it is cleared that the environmental temperature does not affect to the heat accumulation speed in rubber parts. Also, the heat built-up mechanism was clarified from the thermo-mechanical work based on numerical analysis and experiments.

폐타이어의 처리방법으로서는 recycling이 가장 최선의 방법 중의 하나이다. 하지만 재활용의 어려움 중에는 경제성의 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 폐타이어의 입자 크기를 줄이는 방법과 표면처리를 통하여 제품의 물성을 향상시키는 방법이 있다. 본 연구에서는 두 방법을 동시에 응용한 방법으로 폐타이어의 입자크기를 작게 하고 ultrasonic 처리를 하였다. 그 결과로 폐타이어 가황 시스템의 변화를 가져옴으로서 물성의 향상을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 기술은 재활용의 경제성을 높이는 기초기술임을 알 수 있었다.

기존교량의 내진성능개선 및 신설교량의 지진보호에 납-고무 베어링은 좋은 효과를 보여주고 있다. 그러나 납-고무 베어링은 사용상에 있어 문제점이 있으며, 이를 개선하기 위하여 형상기억합금(shape memory alloy)을 이용한 면진장치를 본 연구에서 제시하였다. 3경간 연속 고속도로 강교량의 지진해석을 통하여 납-고무베어링과 고무베어링 및 형상기억합금 와이어와의 조합 면진장치의 지진거동을 비교하였다. 해석결과 형상기억합금 와이어+고무베어링 시스템이 납-고무베어링과 거의 유사한 거동을 보여주었으며, 특히 제시된 면진장치는 상대변위의 제어 및 잔류변형에 있어 기존의 납-고무 베어링에 비해 성능이 우수했다.

The objective of this study is to investigate the response reducing effect of a seismic isolation system installed between 300m dome and supports under both horizontal and vertical seismic ground motion. The time history analysis is performed to investigate the dynamic behavior of single layer lattice domes with and without a lead rubber bearing seismic isolation system. In order to ensure the seismic performance of lattice domes against strong earthquakes, it is important to investigate the mechanical characteristics of dynamic response. Horizontal and vertical seismic ground motions cause a large asymmetric vertical response of large span domes. One of the most effective methods to reduce the dynamic response is to install a seismic isolation system for observing seismic ground motion at the base of the dome. This paper discusses the dynamic response characteristics of 300m single layer lattice domes supported on a lead rubber seismic isolation device under horizontal and vertical seismic ground motions.

The performance of an isolated horizontally curved continuous bridge with High Damping Rubber (HDR) Bearings has been investigated under seismic loading conditions. The effectiveness of response controls of the bridge by HDR bearings for various aspects viz. variation in ground motion characteristics, multi-directional effect, level of earthquake shaking, varying incidence angle, have been determined. Three recorded ground motions, representative of historical earthquakes along with near-field, far-field and forward directivity effects, have been considered in the study. The efficacy of the bearings with bidirectional effect considering interaction behavior of bearing and pier has also been investigated. Modeling and analysis of the bridge have been done by finite element approach. Sensitivity studies of the bridge response with respect to design parameters of the bearings for the considered ground motions have been performed. The importance of the nonlinearity of HDR bearings along with crucial design parameters has been identified. It has been observed that the HDR bearings performed well in different variations of ground motions, especially for controlling torsional moment. However, the deck displacement has been found to be increased significantly in case of Turkey ground motions, considering forward directivity effect, which needs to be paid more attention from designer point of view.

고무는 독특한 점탄성적 성질로 인하여 여러 분야에서 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 고무의 마찰은 지속적인 지면과의 접지로 인하여 발생되고, 결과적으로 마모가 발생한다. 이때 마찰에 의해 발생되는 마찰에너지는 마모 메커니즘의 중요 요인으로, 마찰에너지는 온도, 지면의 거칠기, 형상, 하중, 물성 등의 조건에 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 마찰에너지에 대한 수직 하중과 수평 이동속도의 영향을 ABAQUS/explicit을 이용하여 해석하였고, 접지압, 전단력과 슬립 거리를 이용하여 마찰에너지를 계산하였다. 또한 실제 고무의 거동에 대한 실험 결과와 해석 결과를 비교하였다.

In this study, we investigated the effects of a crosslinking agent and a compatibilizer on the mechanical and rheological properties of waste PP and waste ground rubber tire (WGRT) composites. In order to simulate a commercial TPV, the component of waste PP and WGRT was fixed at 30 and 70 wt%, respectively. With the simple addition of SEBS-g-MA into the waste PP/WGRT composites, the tensile strength of the composite was decreased, whereas both the elongation at break and impact strength were significantly increased because of rubbery characteristics of SEBS-g-MA. In order to further improve the properties of the composites, the waste PP/WGRT/SEBS-g-MA composites was revulcanized with dicumyl peroxide (DCP). As expected, mechanical properties of the revulcanized composites was generally improved. Especially, with 15 and 1 phr of SEBS-g-MA and DCP, elongation at break was highest value of about 183% because of the recross-linking of WGRT without chain scission of the main chain. It was found that complex viscosity of the revulcanized composite increased which might verify further vulcanization of the WGRT.

In this study, the reclaimed polypropylene (RPP) and waste ground rubber tire (WGRT) were used to simulate the thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) for cost reduction and resources recycling. Also, we examined the effects of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-(tert-butylperoxy)-hexane (DTBPH) as peroxide type cross-linking agents to enhance the properties of TPV's. The components of RPP and WGRT were fixed at 30 and 70 wt%, and DCP and DTBPH were added in the concentrations from 0.5 to 1.5 phr, respectively. RPP/WGRT composites with different contents of DCP and DTBPH were prepared by a modular intermeshing co-rotating twin screw extruder. The Young's modulus of composites were decreased with increasing peroxides contents. On the other hand, tensile strength, elongation at break, and impact strength of the composites were increased with peroxide contents. We also confirmed that interfacial adhesion between RPP and WGRT was considerably improved by adding the peroxides. Taken together, DTBPH added RPP/WGRT composites exhibited better mechanical properties rather than those of DCP added composites.

In this study, a non-stationary random earthquake Clough-Penzien model is used to describe earthquake ground motion. Using stochastic direct integration in combination with an equivalent linear method, a solution is established to describe the non-stationary response of lead-rubber bearing (LRB) system to a stochastic earthquake. Two parameters are used to develop an optimization method for bearing design: the post-yielding stiffness and the normalized yield strength of the isolation bearing. Using the minimization of the maximum energy response level of the upper structure subjected to an earthquake as an objective function, and with the constraints that the bearing failure probability is no more than 5% and the second shape factor of the bearing is less than 5, a calculation method for the two optimal design parameters is presented. In this optimization process, the radial basis function (RBF) response surface was applied, instead of the implicit objective function and constraints, and a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm was used to solve the optimization problems. By considering the uncertainties of the structural parameters and seismic ground motion input parameters for the optimization of the bearing design, convex set models (such as the interval model and ellipsoidal model) are used to describe the uncertainty parameters. Subsequently, the optimal bearing design parameters were expanded at their median values into first-order Taylor series expansions, and then, the Lagrange multipliers method was used to determine the upper and lower boundaries of the parameters. Moreover, using a calculation example, the impacts of site soil parameters, such as input peak ground acceleration, bearing diameter and rubber shore hardness on the optimization parameters, are investigated.
